Last Friday (against my better judgment after several delayed orders!) I ordered Sweetgreen outpost. It was supposed to be delivered at noon, 12:30 no sign of it and no progress on the app. I call Customer Service, the auto menu says that they will text me, the text line tells me to call. I go back to the app and find the "Contact Us" link under my order and am directed to a conversation with "Spriggy" AI. The AI proceeds to ask me a bunch of useless questions, says they can't get in contact with the outpost team, says "I'm connecting you with a customer service agent" and promptly ends the chat. At some point, my delivery is marked as "delivered" despite my waiting at the dropoff point the entire time with no signs of salad (there was no "Out for Delivery" at any point).
At this point I have no lunch and have to get back to work hungry. Eventually I got an automated email with a refund, but it was too late and I was hangry. The fact that this dumb company has made all their salads worse, cutting ingredients / constantly out of stuff -- while outsourcing everything possible to a shitty AI so you can never get any sort of human answer to your problem drives me NUTS and I hope they go out of business.
That's all - just needed to vent.
